education

Join Bird Conservancy of the Rockies for a monthly educational Family & Homeschool program. Each month we’ll focus on a different subject or area of interest to share with your family. Participants should expect each activity to largely take place outside and a parent or guardian should plan to stay with their child(ren) through the duration of the program.

May’s theme is ‘Birds of Prey’. Some of our most impressive avian residents in Colorado and at Barr lake are the incredible birds of prey. From their eyesight to their adept flight patterns these birds are very well adapted to the role they play in our ecosystems. We’ll be joined by Nature’s Educators and their education animals to see birds of prey up close and see the adaptations of these birds first hand.

Accessibility Information: Handicap parking is available at the meeting location along with accessible restrooms. Some of this program may include slow-paced walking along flat gravel or dirt paths. Accessible equipment will be available for use during this program.

Scholarships are available. Please complete THIS FORM BEFORE you register and wait for a reply from a Bird Conservancy staff member.

March’s theme is ‘Bird Song’. From the call of an eagle to the rhythmic chirp of a backyard bird, bird songs and calls are something many of us have come to know. In this program we’ll learn more about bird songs & build a working knowledge of how these sounds play an important role in the world of birds.

February’s theme is ‘Feederwatching & Birds of Winter’. While winter may seem like a cold and quiet season, we have many bird species that stick around!

We’ll also take some time to look at bird feeders, talk about Feederwatch and make our own suet to support birds in your backyard!
